When Emma had failed to grasp the thrust of the future president’s offer, she says he got more straightforward:

“‘Well, you know, I think we would get on very well. Maybe we could have dinner sometime.’ I didn’t know what to do with myself!”

Obviously, she did — she’s a woman of culture and taste, so she said NO.

And that was the end of the story, as far as Emma was concerned. You can watch the delightful star tell it all (below).

So essentially, Emma was playing Hillary (just check out her wardrobe and hair in the flick — there’s no mistaking it).

Moreover, Trump called Thompson IN HER TRAILER, something that — as the actress states — does not happen.

All this leads us to the conclusion that the future POTUS was not trying to hook up with the erudite writer/star of Sense And Sensibility; he was trying to screw the woman playing Hillary Clinton! (Years before he screwed over the real Hillary.)
